A little bit about me and a lot about the things we do.

Time to fly

Yesterday was a full day!  We left our house around 6:00 a.m. and drove to Napanee in snow!!  We parked the truck and got on the Megabus to get to Toronto.  The roads were icy and we saw a few accidents on the  east bound and we were only a little delayed but didn’t have any major issues.

We were dropped at the airport around 10:30 and then we just had to wait.  We put some steps on dragging our luggage around the terminal.  Sarah pulled out school work and got quite a bit done.

The highlight of the airport’s long wait was that Sarah was able to get the biggest Starbucks drink ever and she sipped on it for hours.

On one of our walks we saw a little flock of birds that had somehow gotten into the building.  We watched them for a little while and saw how smart they were.  They would fly to a fountain to get a drink.  Where does the expression “bird brain” come from?

Around 4:30, we were headed down the ramp to the airplane.  I’ve got some pretty nice travellers with me.

At 5:00 pm, we were on our plane, headed west. We spent five hours sitting, eating, playing games, listening to music, watching shows and yes, Sarah had to visit the bathroom twice….remember that very large drink!



We arrived in Vancouver at 7:00 pm local time which would be 10:00 Ontario time.


It was about an hour later that we were able to get our luggage, find the shuttle and check into our hotel.  We talked to Stephen twice….we are a bit excited to see him and Kylie and their fur family.

We were ready for bed after a 19 hour day.

This morning while updating the blog…I had some extra help.

These guys go everywhere with Sarah!

Side note….thanks to my wonderful cousins for looking after us while we are gone…looking after our truck, house and back up if anything goes wrong.
